stop buying those, get packs of normal 42W cool white/6500K CFLs for a hand full of bucks, an enviro is also just a big CFL - but an really expensive one;) for one enviro you can get 10-15 double packs of 42W's ones;) and it will hurt less if you drop one of those:D

I have calmed down abit now :) But WOW just WOW. The high I got (adredaline) when I heard that light drop was MORE than all the bud I could of grown put togeth! I flipped! I was throwing punched everywhere! stamping the ground! smashing the wall. Was some high lol.

Anyway as my mum always says "everything happens for a reason". I think your right. I am gonna go down to homebase and look for some of those lights :)

But Iam still annoyed though.

same with me a few weeks ago, killed my HPS bulb by not watching out during misting the plants a bit to get the humidity up from 35%, giant bang and flash:evil: and all was gone to hack with my 70 bucks bulb:cry: still glade that i had my shades on, so i took no glass close to my eyes but all over me else:-? that was the only bit of luck that night:-|

but this damn wisdom of mothers, jess, that would drive me nuts then:twisted:

sorry for ur loss, dropped many a bulb myself. head down to ur local lowes hardware store, theyre gettin rid of 150w hps lights for $22, a much better deal then cfls.

well its good to hear Iam not the only one :) Well, back to good old homebase tommorow. for the fourth time!

There gonna think Iam suck a werido, lol.

The sad thing is is that I have already spent over 100 quid ($200) on lights so far :( and got nothing in return apart from a crappy 13w t8 floruro light :(

man for 10-15 packs of 2 42w cfls and 20-30 sockets and plugs is a bit more then a handful of bucks...i have 3 200w cfls and 1 150w with 2 40w for additional lighting..and the amount of light they produce compared to a 42 is probably the same if not more.. none the less theyre growin me some sick plants.

Wonderful idea. Not really an honest thing to do but hey unfortunately I've done the same, not on the same product of course, but certainly similar and it all works out.
